Like port authorizations, power authorizations are controlled with group membership. At least one
group is assigned during initial configuration of each user account. To add multiple users to a
group, you can use the Members window to configure multiple users from a list of all configured
users, such as:
Assigning one or more PDUs to a group to authorize the group to manage the entire PDU
(upgrade firmware, change outlet names and PDU names) and manage power on all of its
outlets.
Assigning one or more outlets to a group to authorize the group to manage the specified
outlets. Power management commands are on, off, cycle and - for Cyclades PDUs only - lock
and unlock.
NOTE: On the Authorizations - Power - PDU - Power screen, all configured PDUs are listed. If you specify a PDU
name in the Custom PDU ID field and assign it to a group, the group members can access the PDU when it is
connected.
